hi all:
      I built a module for calculate the SHA-1. The code is:

int rc = 0;
    int i;
    char hashtext[SHA1_LENGTH];
memset(hashtext, 0x00, SHA1_LENGTH);
    printk(KERN_INFO "sha1: %s\n", __FUNCTION__);
sg_init_one(&sg, plaintext, len);
    desc.tfm = crypto_alloc_hash("sha1", 0, CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC);
    desc.flags = 0;

        goto out;

    crypto_free_hash(desc.tfm);

        printk(KERN_INFO "%02x-%d\n", hashtext[i]&0xff, i);
    }
out:
    printk(KERN_INFO "end\n");
    return rc;
}
static void hello_exit(void)
{
    printk(KERN_ALERT "Goodbye, cruel world\n");
}
module_init(hello_init);
module_exit(hello_exit);

I can just get the right result by way 3 and 4, In way 1 and 2 , I get the
wrong result,
I suggest you add something like this:

    printk(KERN_INFO "plaintext='%c', len=%zu, valid=%s\n", *plaintext, len, virt_addr_valid(plaintext) ? "true" : "false");


and then go figure out the relationship between that and the correct
result :)
